"Yes, I agree, Severus. Snape. ”

Lucius surprisingly didn't hesitate.

Thinking about it, once Lucius betrayed the Dark Lord, the Malfoy family's original connections and prestige among pure-bloods would undoubtedly suffer a huge blow.

The Malfoys originally migrated from France a thousand years ago to follow King William I to England and establish the Malfoy family.

What is more dramatic is that the original Malfoy family was extremely close to Muggles, and even the Malfoy family was everywhere in British high society at that time.

It wasn't until after the Wizarding Secrecy that the Malfoys began to deny any association with Muggles and shouted the slogan "pureblood supremacy", thus successfully entering the upper class of the wizarding world.

After that, the Malfoys began to use the vast wealth they had amassed in Muggle society to invest in the wizarding world, and continued to promote high-profile statements that catered to the ideals of pure-blood families.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Malfoy family became famous for a magazine called Wizarding Wars, which promoted pure-bloods and attacked Muggles.

It is also because of this that the Malfoy family has reached the apex of all families now that the pure-blood family is constantly withering.

Therefore, the supremacy of pure blood is more of a slogan for the Malfoy family, or a political means, and a way to develop the Malfoy family.

This is a clear difference from the pure-blood families of England such as the Gaunt family and the Black family.

At the same time, in order to avoid the occurrence of consanguineous marriages in a narrow pure-blood circle and jeopardize the family inheritance, the Malfoy family deliberately avoided this when choosing a partner for in-laws, so that many half-blood wizards appeared in the Malfoy family.

Because of this, the Malfoy family did not have some descendants like the Gaunt family or the Lestrange family, and there were always some people who were twisted and crazy to the point of the destruction of the family.

So the Malfoy family's motto has always been "family first".

This is also an important reason why Zhang Jin cooperated with Lucius, who was more of a political speculator than a pure-blooded madman.

And if the slogan of the pure-blood supremacy of the Malfoy family is subverted and the pure-blood talisman is lost, it is easy for the Malfoy family to be boycotted or crusaded by other pure-blood families, and it is estimated that the Malfoy family may really be destroyed at that time.

It is estimated that Lucius also thought of this, and the fact that Lucius was able to lead the pure-blood family after betraying Voldemort in the original book shows his political ability.

And the best way to do this is to separate the betrayal of Voldemort from the betrayal of the pure-blood family, or simply think of it as a kind of helplessness and wrongdoing.

The original Lucius may have chosen the second option, so he could be reappointed after Voldemort's comeback.

And the disadvantage of this is also obvious, that is, distrust, which makes it difficult for the Malfoy family to maintain their position.

Soon, with the help of Narcissa, Zhang Jin and Lucius completed the Loyalty Curse, and the two sides agreed to form an alliance with each other, protect each other, and most importantly, not limited to this time, but a long-term alliance.

"Tell me, Severus, what do you suggest?" After Narcissa left, the two continued to sit in the secret room and talk.

At this time, Lucius's attitude was obviously different, and he no longer wore a mask-like expression.

"I don't have anything to suggest, only two messages, whatever you want," Zhang Jin still said directly: "The first news is Barty Crouch Jr., the son of the current director of the Law Enforcement Department, Barty Crouch, is a Death Eater. ”

"That's really good news, can you confirm it?" Lucius was visibly pleased.

It's no wonder that Lucius was glad that Voldemort's recruitment of Death Eaters was not public, and only a few people he thought were suitable would be introduced to other Death Eaters.

And everyone wears masks at big events, so a lot of the time it's just guesswork, and even Lucius only knows part of it.

Even a limited number of non-core personnel were known, such as Karkaroff, who ended up reporting only three Death Eaters.

The Director of the Law Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic is a figure who can compete with the Minister of Magic, and is known for his resistance to Voldemort.

"Little Barty has flaunted in front of me more than once, and even almost showed his mark."

Severus is in the same class as Barty Crouch Jr., and both have a reputation for genius, but the latter is clearly hostile to Severus.

And Barty Crouch Jr. is still an avid pureblood, probably looking down on Severus's bloodline.

This led Barty Crouch Jr. to achieve nothing and always wanted to show off in front of Severus.

"Well, it's not surprising that someone like him does anything," Lucius's attitude has changed really quickly since the alliance: "What about another news?" ”

"The Dark Lord is a half-blood!" Zhang Jin suddenly threw out a nuclear bomb.

"What did you say?" Lucius squirted a large mouthful of black tea, and his cane was tossed aside, apparently blown up.

Zhang Jin just calmly removed the iron armor curse, and then admired Lucius Malfoy's gaffe quite complacently.

"The Dark Lord's original name was Tom. Marvolo. Riddle, who became "I am Voldemort" after the letter was transformed, was a half-blood, a Squib daughter of the Gaunt family and a Muggle child. ”

"Is the news confirmed?" Malfoy deserves to be Malfoy, he recovered so quickly, and fortunately the Dark Lord is dead, otherwise this thing may really have a hand with Zhang Jin.

But don't you just throw away your beloved cane?

Of course, Zhang Jin didn't say this, it would be bad if he really did it, and he should really turn his face if he hammered Lucius again.

"The news is confirmed, Hogwarts has a record of him, and after graduation he went to work in Bogin-Bock for a while."

It's ironic to say that Voldemort, who is considered proud of purebloods and willing to lean over and kiss his robes, is actually a half-blood!

And very few people in the wizarding world in general know about it, especially the Death Eaters.

The reason is also very simple, one is that Voldemort never showed his real name, and it was very different from the original appearance.

And many of the earliest followers were really infected by Voldemort's charm, and they didn't know much about it.

Even Voldemort himself found out about his origins when he was almost graduating, and he covered up this fact that day.

Voldemort's actions included killing his own father, Tom Sr., and framing his uncle, the last member of the Gaunt family, Morfin. Gaunt and caused his death in Azkaban, and the Gaunt family perished.

The new generation of Death Eaters who came later was even less skeptical.

And after Voldemort attracted a large number of Death Eaters, and his power and strength became more and more powerful, he kept his origins secret, forbidding others to explore.

Another reason is the arrogance of purebloods, they take it for granted that the heir of Slytherin, a dark wizard so powerful, a Slytherin who advocates the idea of pureblood, should be a pureblood.

If this news is released to the wizarding world, I don't know how many people will be stunned!
